Lendon Bracewell
LEADS THE BUSINESS
Hi, I’m Lendon. I currently live outside Atlanta, GA. I’m the founder of VisionaryFire.com and WizardVFX.com
My parents went though an big divorce when I was 16 and started living on my own at that age (was eating oatmeal and didn’t have friends) and had to figure out how to make money with VFX. I never went to worked a job and never went to public school.
Video Copilot’s early tutorials kicked off my career (no surprise), worked for ActionVFX.com, I moved to LA, worked for big VFX studios, and eventually started WizardVFX.com that has been very successful.
I have extensive experience in Nuke, Adobe Suite, Cinema 4D, and have worked closely with specialist in every other VFX software like Houdini, Maya, Blender, etc
My goals are:
- Help 50 ambitious VFX artists make over $20k monthly revenue
- Help people become happier and wiser with meditation
- Teach as many people as possible by growing YouTube and what not
For fun, I like to:
- Learn about the Buddha’s teaching
- Design & build software
- Have useful conversations with my friends & family
- Make friends with strangers
